MR. CHAIRMAN LADIES AND FELLOW CITIZENS: The
campaign in which the people of the State of New-York
engaged is directing general interest through
out the country tits attributable largely TO the near
approach Of the Presidential Campaign OF 1888 IL Is
generally believed that NewYork declares this faii
90 she will declare next fall While 1t not be GER
tainly affirmed that the vote this year would DO dupl
Gated year. yet am safe in saying that the party
which Is successful in the state OF NewforK this year
will hold it's antagonists at decided disadvantage
year hence. tApplause.l 1t Is slsnihc"h1

OF New York exerts the electoral college IL 10 gen

1873 electoral votes will be poed sodly Tor the
Democratic nominee for President whether that cand
date he Grover Cleveland or Jefferson Davis lhsses'l
